    摘要: A partition that is executed by multiple processing nodes. Each node includes multiple cores and each of the cores has a frequency that can be set. A first frequency range is provided to the cores. Each core, when executing the identified partition, sets its frequency within the first frequency range. Frequency metrics are gathered from the cores running the partition by the nodes. The gathered frequency metrics are received and analyzed by a hypervisor that determines a second frequency range to use for the partition, with the second frequency range being different from the first frequency range. The second frequency range is provided to the cores at the nodes executing the identified partition. When the cores execute the identified partition, they use a frequencies within the second frequency range.

    摘要: A method, system, and computer usable program product for power distribution considering cooling nodes in a data processing environment. A power demand of a data processing environment is determined for a period. The data processing environment includes a set of computing nodes and cooling nodes. A determination is made that the power demand will exceed a limit on electrical power available to the data processing environment for the period if the computing nodes and the cooling nodes in the data processing environment are operated in a first configuration. A first amount of power is redistributed from a cooling node in the data processing environment to a computing node in the data processing environment such that a temperature related performance threshold of a subset of computing nodes is at least met.

    摘要: A method, apparatus, and computer-usable medium for predicting capacity on a data processing system. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a capacity manager estimates an incremental power value utilize for activating and maintaining an additional processor in the data processing system. The capacity manager calculates a power headroom value. In response to calculating the power headroom value, the capacity manager determines whether an adjustment power headroom value is required. The capacity manager calculates a projected capacity value added by the additional processor to the data processing system.

    摘要: A system and method for an initial boot of a system before adding or removing drawers to a system without requiring an n-level cable. Standby power is applied after all cables have been connected to the system. All available expansion ports for an SMP cable are searched. A unique ID is sent over and received by all plugged SMP cables. A list of each controller and its connected controllers is created, and a master controller is assigned. A plugging table of each controller is sent to the master controller. The master controller compares all received plugging tables to plugging rules. Errors are reported in cable plugging errors and system configuration is reported to platform management service.
